Meanwhile, pyrolysis technology, with its advantages of flexible operation, low cost, and high energy recovery efficiency, has become a rapid and efficient method for treating industrial organic solid waste.
[0003] However, existing research focuses more on the quantitative analysis of energy, while paying less attention to the quality differences in energy use and production processes.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an evaluation method for the pyrolysis of industrial organic solid waste based on the principle of entropy increase to analyze the entropy generated during the pyrolysis process. Summary of the Invention

[0014] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0015] Please see Figure 1 An embodiment of the present invention provides a schematic flowchart of an evaluation method for the pyrolysis of industrial organic solid waste based on the principle of entropy increase. The method includes:
[0016] Step 100: Calculate the total entropy value of the input substances based on their entropy values in the pyrolysis system; wherein, the input substances include industrial organic solid waste, diesel oil, air, water, and electricity; the pyrolysis system is used to pyrolyze industrial organic solid waste.
[0017] Step 102: Calculate the total entropy value of the output based on the entropy value of the output substances of the pyrolysis system; wherein, the output substances include biochar, bio-oil, waste gas, wastewater, ash, and heat entropy loss;
[0018] Step 104: Calculate the entropy change value generated by the pyrolysis system based on the total entropy value of the input substance and the total entropy value of the output substance;
[0019] Step 106: Calculate the comprehensive entropy efficiency index based on the entropy change value generated by the pyrolysis system, so as to evaluate the pyrolysis system using the comprehensive entropy efficiency index.
[0020] In this embodiment, the total entropy value of the input substances is first calculated based on their entropy values. Then, the total entropy value of the output substances is calculated based on their entropy values. Next, the entropy change generated by the pyrolysis system is calculated based on both the total entropy values of the input and output substances. Finally, a comprehensive entropy efficiency index is calculated based on the entropy change generated by the pyrolysis system, and this index is used to evaluate the pyrolysis system. Therefore, the above technical solution can analyze the entropy generated during the pyrolysis process.
[0021] In some implementations, the entropy generated during the pyrolysis of waste photovoltaic module EVA is calculated. The functional unit is set as 1 ton of EVA pyrolysis. First, the EVA raw material is dried by introducing EVA and N2 at 100°C under normal pressure. After drying, the hot N2 and dried EVA are separated and discharged. The dried EVA is then fed into a pyrolysis reactor and pyrolyzed at 500°C to obtain volatiles and ash. The volatiles are fully condensed to obtain pyrolysis oil and pyrolysis gas. The pyrolysis oil can be recycled, and the pyrolysis gas can be mixed with air for combustion, releasing heat to power the pyrolysis system. Finally, flue gas is discharged. Therefore, for the EVA pyrolysis process, the main inputs are EVA, N2, and air, and the main outputs are pyrolysis oil, waste flue gas, and ash. The entropy calculation data for 1 ton of EVA pyrolysis is shown in Table 1 (showing the input entropy, value, output entropy, value, and generated entropy).
[0022] Table 1. Entropy (MJ / K) generated by the conventional pyrolysis of EVA
[0023]
[0024] If solar energy is introduced to heat the EVA pyrolysis system and pyrolysis gas is output as a product, the entropy calculation results of 1 ton of EVA pyrolysis are shown in Table 2 (showing the input entropy, value, output entropy, value, and generated entropy).
[0025] Table 2 shows the entropy (MJ / K) generated by the partial substitution of solar energy for pyrolysis of EVA.
[0026]
[0027] Calculations show that the entropy generated during the conventional pyrolysis of EVA is positive, but becomes negative after the introduction of solar energy. This indicates that the EVA pyrolysis system becomes more ordered and efficient after the introduction of solar heating. This means that under these environmental conditions, the system's internal operation becomes more regular and coordinated, reducing waste and pollutant emissions and lowering the disorder output of the EVA pyrolysis system to the environment, thereby reducing output entropy. Furthermore, the reduction in output entropy also signifies an increase in energy conversion efficiency. In the solar pyrolysis scenario, pyrolysis gas is output as an effective energy product. Compared to the combustion and emission of flue gas in the traditional pyrolysis scenario, less energy is lost in a useless form, and more energy can be effectively converted into a useful form, directly improving energy conversion efficiency and reducing system disorder.
[0028] The data for various scenarios are shown below:
[0029] For the positive entropy production case: a1 = 0.2, b1 = 0.15, c1 = 0.1, d1 = 1.
[0030] For the case of negative entropy production: a2 = 0.1, b2 = 0.2, c2 = 0.05, d2 = 0.5.
[0031] Considering the absolute values of both positive and negative entropy: a3 = 0.15, b3 = 0.1, c3 = 0.05, d3 = 0.5.
[0032] Weighting coefficients: ω1 = 0.3, ω2 = 0.5, ω3 = 0.2.
[0033] The CEEI calculation data for the EVA pyrolysis process are shown in Table 3 (showing the function name, conventional pyrolysis of EVA, and solar-alternative pyrolysis of EVA).
[0034] Table 3. CEEI Calculation Results for EVA Pyrolysis Process
[0035]
[0036] The results above show that the conventional pyrolysis system for EVA performs poorly, while the solar-powered partial pyrolysis system for EVA outperforms it. This system converts more input energy into usable output, improving overall efficiency and utilizing input energy more effectively, thus enhancing output quality. In practical applications, the CEEI value can be used to assess system performance, providing crucial reference for system optimization and decision-making.
[0037] Therefore, based on the above analysis, there are two main directions for optimizing the pyrolysis process: First, improve energy conversion efficiency, such as introducing renewable energy sources and efficiently separating and collecting pyrolysis products (solid, liquid, and gaseous) for rational utilization, thereby improving overall energy efficiency. Furthermore, recover the waste heat generated during pyrolysis for use in drying or preheating feed, reducing energy consumption. Second, reduce waste and pollutant emissions by utilizing clean energy sources such as solar and wind power to provide energy for the pyrolysis process, which can significantly reduce pollutants generated from fossil fuel combustion.
[0038] The analysis quantifies the quality and availability of energy in the pyrolysis system, as shown in Table 4 (which shows the name, typical pyrolysis components, etc.). (and solar pyrolysis components). By calculating different input and output energies The value can clearly define the effective energy available for doing work in the system.

[0040]
[0041] The data table above provides a clear understanding of the input fuel. With the production of pyrolysis gas, bio-oil and other products This allows for the evaluation of the system's efficiency in energy quality conversion. It can also help identify energy loss points and amounts within the system. The analysis primarily focuses on the quality and availability of energy, but its explanation of the irreversible nature of energy conversion is not intuitive enough. The principle of entropy increase, from the perspective of the second law of thermodynamics, more profoundly explains why energy loss and unavailability always exist in actual processes, further illustrating the irreversibility of energy loss during use. For example, under certain complex pyrolysis conditions, relying solely on… Analysis may fall short of accurately explaining certain phenomena that appear to utilize energy efficiently but are actually inefficient. In such cases, the principle of entropy increase can reveal underlying irreversible processes and an increase in disorder, providing supplementary explanations. The fundamental cause of energy degradation not covered in the analysis, the principle of entropy increase provides a macroscopic perspective for assessing the overall thermodynamic performance of a system, and The analysis focuses more on the microscopic quality of energy and conversion efficiency. In summary, Analysis and the principle of entropy increase can complement each other in case studies, providing a comprehensive assessment from micro to macro levels. This allows for a more complete and in-depth evaluation of the system's energy utilization, providing stronger guidance for system optimization and improvement.

It also has guiding significance for achieving a sustainable development model for the utilization of industrial organic solid waste.
